From research, i saw the same question with the excerpt:
<span>He sate, and eyed the sun, and wish'd the night;
Slow seem'd the sun to move, the hours to roll,
His native home deep-imaged in his soul.
As the tired ploughman, spent with stubborn toil,
Whose oxen long have torn the furrow'd soil,
Sees with delight the sun's declining ray,
When home with feeble knees he bends his way
To late repast (the day's hard labour done);
So to Ulysses welcome set the sun;
</span>
The choices are:
<span>simile
epic simile
metaphor
epithet
</span>
So the answer is "EPIC SIMILE"
1. "Atticus had used every tool available to free men to save Tom Robinson, but in the secret courts of men's hearts Atticus had no case. Tom was a dead man the minute Mayella Ewell opened her mouth and screamed." - Chapter 25
Scout figures out that sometimes bigotry and emotion overpower a supposedly objective justice system.
2. "Atticus was right. One time he said you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them. Just standing on the Radley porch was enough." - Chapter 31
Because of her age and limited knowledge, Scout takes her father's comment literally, musing that she can see the post office on the corner from the Radley porch. But the figural meaning is clear to readers.
3. "I said I would like it very much, which was a lie, but one must lie under certain circumstances and at all times when one can't do anything about them." - Chapter 13
Scout realizes it does no good to point out hurtful truths that cannot be changed.
Sample thesis statements: In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee characterizes Atticus as a man who stands for justice above all else. In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch represents courage in almost every aspect of his life.
Prepositional is a word that expresses a relationship between a noun/pronoun and another word in a sentence. Easier way to put it would be like saying you take a object or noun (ex: home) and also make up a location (ex: in), basically noun relation to a verb.
Example: <u>In my house</u>, you'll find my dog. House relates to where the dog is.
Answer:
simile
